Explanation:

A harness for dogs in a context of running (like pulling a sled) is not for identification (collars are for that - option a wrong). Leashes (option c) are for walking and controlling movement in a different way. A harness in this context (dogs running straight for 12 hours likely pulling something) refers to straps that allow them to pull (like a sled). So option b is correct.

Answer:

B. straps attached to the dogs that allow them to pull the sled.
